Ben

I love my Ben. I can't wait to see him again!
Ben came waltzing into my world when I worked at Cinnabon, and he worked at Subway. How post highschool does THAT sound?! We'd gone to school together, but he was 2 years older than me, and we hadn't hung out. I knew he was though, of course.
We became fast friends, through Kenny- who will get a page dedication too. Kenny scared poor Ben. Kenny was very flamboyant and I adored him. And he kinda adored Ben. He would go to Subway to get food and scare Ben. Ben would come to Cinnabon and tell me about Kenny scaring him.
It wasn't long before we were hanging out all the time. I had a few sincere guy friends in highschool, who were just friends, but Ben took the cake. We had SO much fun together and it was never anything more than platonic. I used to explain it by saying it felt like God blocked it. I mean, comon, I'm a girl...even my platonic friends I would try to imagine smooching to see what I thought, and that just does not fly with Ben. Not at all. I loved his whole family. His oldest brother went to highschool with my sister, too. FUNNY! Anyways...he used to say he was a dinkus in school, but the Ben I knew was nothing but fabulous. He'd come with me to dr appts, and our weekends were spent at his house or...someone's house, having a good time. I hold him dearly in my heart for being the best male friend a girl could have. I was a messed up girl back then, and to have one safe guy that I didn't need to worry about...it was so, so, so, so refreshing.
We fell apart when I started dating and then getting serious with Cullen. When we got married, we really fell apart. Well--- I guess it wasn't until I got pg w/CJ that it really, really happened.
He is now married with kids, and therefore, the playing field is even again. I have high hopes of seeing him again really, really soon.
